"We will find you and hold you accountable" Unless of course they're rich or related to a politician/celebrity.

We truly can't enjoy anything without BS.

"10 woman, one of who were 16 years old"... Not a woman, that is a child, a minor

[gomerhanger]

if you think this is bad you should wait till the World Cup.

Prostitution and human trafficking are not the same thing

[Billy-wd]

Spider man should be ashamed of himself

[chrisrodriguez]

Wait “the victims were cited for soliciting prostitution”

So are we just calling prostitution “human trafficking” for punchier headlines now?

Disgusting, especially in a convention.

[Adriheydri]

I wonder if they were looking for Dr. Disrespect!

[imnugget]

Olympic does this on a massive scale if comic con does this

[Cheebs]

Because the word prostitution isn't as sensational.

[LouKiss]

I want to see the police reports and follow ups because this looks like a nonprofit scam preying on a trendy fear

So do the Human Trafficers dress as Cosplayers as a disguise?

[elbt]

Please follow up on what being freed looks like

Why show the location of where the victims will stay after they were

[themaddgamer]

I don't know why they keep saying comicon. I'm guessing any event can have illicit activity. They seem to be inferring that this unique to only this event.

[Halcon_Sierreno]

How do we know the cops aren't corrupt too, though?

[countessk]

I wonder what the reasoning was behind offering trafficked people at Comic Con. "They are a bunch of nerds. They are not getting any. We'll make tons of money!"
Glad this operation was taken out though, and hopefully the people who would buy are taken out of the nerd pool. I say this as someone who was cosplaying way back when we were considered weird and immature. I find it neat that it's become a main stream thing that is admired.
